Take Up Your Cross
What right do we have
To sit and complain
With all we receive
In GOD'S precious name
When the worse that we carry
Is a thorn in the side
Jesus carried a cross
That reached to the sky
For GOD said,"
THIS MUST BE DONE
YOUR SUFFERING DEAR JESUS
WILL REDEEM EVERYONE
"
So, with the greatest humility
The world had ever seen
Jesus gave up His life
For you and for me
GOD grant me the wisdom
Never to forget
Least I sin and hurt you
With deepest regret
And extend me this grace
Which I now ask of you
That with YOUR help
My heart may be true
